Alan, Jeez, haven't the times changed! These days one can go to Ripples on the Creek, sit on the deck and enjoy good coffee and a gourmet meal while listening...
Michael, A major issue facing the heritage fleet is the ongoing maintenance. The pool of skills required to maintain such equipment in working order is nearly...
Peter, One only needs to look at the Union Pacific Railroad (one of the best known brands in the US) to see that a modern railway can also actively promote its...
Michael I might be a bit different - but to my thinking the information shared with you as a member of ARHS Q re candidates standing for election at the ...
Ben I think you have already identified the big in-balance in your comparison. For example - when is PN & PNQ (or what ever they are called now - and always...
Ben While I agree with most of your comments re this topic - however I have a slightly different opinion where it comes to you comments on ARHS Q (extracts...
... First I have ever heard of this. I am not aware of any "act of parliament" concerning the heritage rolling stock and QR has always made it clear that they...
I thought a society like the ARHS would be more people nominating for the positions than two for Vice and two for Secretary! Neranda ... From: Michael James...
Hi all, This is a bit off topic, but as this is a forum for railfans you will be pleased with this bit of news. There is a dvd sale on at Big W which started...

Hmmm. An interesting and well thought through piece Ben. Whilst I don't necessarly agree with your views on accreditation and SMS, I do agree with most of what...
A carton of Coronas for the first person to find the elusive Act of Parliament that bind QR to supporting steam operations. I'm sure there's mention of the...
Nor will they. QR will compete on service and historical proven ability to deliver. PN will compete on price and differentiation (their value proposition is...
All, Candidates are invited to submit a statement with their nomination. Some do, some don't, some print or hand-write, some use a type-writer, some use a ...
HI again, My mistake - handwritten was the point of my comment, to be pedantic I suppose there is a difference but surely it was obvious with reference to ...
Peter, Sorry, I was going to say something about that before someone beat me to it but I was in a rush to get the email sent before going out. PN now does not...
Peter, Not unusual for us to agree to disagree. It is all fair and well to reflect on the past and say that ARHSQ was a great organisation and did some...
